"Daddy~" Lovino whined from the doorway of Ludwig's bedroom in the middle of the night.

Ludwig opened his eyes a crack sitting up sleepily, looking into the darkness "What is it Kitten? Did you have a bad dr-dream?" He stumbled over a yawn.

"Uh-uh" He said looking down with a shamed frown as he shook his head no.

"...did you wet the bed again?"

"I don't wet the bed!" Lovino insisted then whimpered holding his tummy.

"Come here… do you feel sick?" He asked, holding out his arms for the other to come up onto the bed. Once Lovino was up he put a hand to the others forehead. "Well.. you don't have a fever…" He was concerned, but more suspicious as Lovino refused to look at him. "Lovino, do you know why you don't feel well?"

"...Maybe…"

Lovino sighed, " What happened?"

Lovino looked down at his rainbow clad feet, hugging his bear closer "Well… orsacchiotto was hungry, so we went into the kitchen… but all I could find was the Candy corn."

"The candy corn from on top of the fridge?" Ludwig said with a raised eyebrow "The fridge full of fruit and snacks, that fridge."

"It uh… It wouldn't open.."

"Really?" He dead panned as Lovino nodded "And… How much of this Candy corn did you eat?"

"Well, not much. I mean, orsacchiotto ate way more. "

Ludwig sighed and tried again, "How much is left?"

Lovino looked away and took out a bag from his nightgown pocket, three lonley pieces of candy sitting in the bottom of the bag. "He was real hungry…"

Ludwig sighed. He was too tired to deal with punishments now, and the way Lovino was sniffling with tiny whimpers was a hint he probably felt bad enough as it was. The Dom shifted over in the bed, tossing back the blankets "Come on in then. You can sleep with Daddy tonight"

Lovino looked up and nodded, climbing under the blankets with his Teddy bear clutched in his arms, moving right in without hesitation to curl up in Ludwig's arms. It wasn't an ideal way to get cuddles, but he also wasn't about to complain about ones that were freely given. "We'll discuss proper nutrition in the morning, okay Kitten?"

"Okay… and Daddy?"

Ludwig hummed, Already starting to drift back off in the relaxing position,

"I puked on my bed…"

And with that he was up for another half hour getting both sets of bedding, Lovino's apparently puke soaked night gown, the teddy bear, and the little himself, all washed up.
